Is the grip portion on the palm solid material or something like glued on dots?

It appears to be solid - additional material layed over and sealed. It is dotted or ribbed on the material.

the buttons are rubber-coated over plastic, to be exact. If your concern is finger slippage while dialing, fear not - the friction supplied by the rubberized button is secure. BUT, bear in mind this is a bare-bones, land-line phone. Nothing about it screams quality.

The edges have some grip....but I would say it is more smooth than grip.....it does not hang up going into your pocket......it's a pretty cool case for the price....looks pretty sleek and is very functional.

Yes the black parts are grippy rubbery....I had the same issue with my phone, it was like a bar of soap! I can't recommend this case more, I love it

Printing custom hand grips for pistols that are recast in resin is about as close as I get. Printing a part that sees any stress on a gun is suicidal in my opinion. Strong plastic in one direction, snaps like a cracker in another.

The grips aren't completely hard plastic, but I don't think I need to worry about them flaking and falling apart.

The black part of the grip is a hard polymer, the colored grip is a dot textured and contoured hard silicon coat I believe. The feel is almost plastic but gripping seems to be a very hard silicon. Not latex I'm sure...

The rubber is textured and your fingers do feel less likely to slip off because this kind of rubber is more slip resistant that the non-rubber camera parts. The skin also makes the grip thicker, but not in a bad way. It can be taken off easily so you can use it only when you feel you are going to bang the camera around. The only problem I have is that the buttons are only marked with impressions of the original markings and not white. This only presents a problem in the dark and as I become more familiar with the camera the problem becomes less of a concern. After you smack the camera into a hard surface for the firs time you will order it, that's what I did.

The wrist/palm rest is detachable, but the keyboard itself is a solid piece.

It's pretty much a flexible plastic case glued to a fake leather book binding. Quality feel is very high considering the price they are asking. It's not the super squishy gel type - more of a TPU type. The good thing about that is it's not made of a hard plastic that will scratch your phone's outer case. Also, some of these type of cases have a stitching that will scratch the gorilla glass. This one will doesn't. I liked my girlfriend's sister in law's cellto S4 case so I bought one for my note 2, as did my girlfirend for her S5, as did her friend for her s5, and her cousin for her note 2. We all love this brand. It's pretty much a flexible plastic case glued to a fake leather book binding. Quality feel is very high considering the price they are asking.

It's not grippy, it's literally just a sticker. It looks good and protects scratching the actual body though!

Not sure. I bought mine just a few months ago brand new...not sure if any major structural changes have been made, but an awesome grip!!!!

Ignore everyone else, it is made of a rubbery feeling plastic. Much gripier than oem

I think it's made of thin aluminum and the grip part is made of plastic. Feels very flimsy.

It is. Some kind of Zinc Alloy if I'm not mistaken. The grips and the middle barrel are plastic though. And that barrel is attached to the orange tip so if you plan on removing it you'll need to be careful.

It has a light texture. I wrapped the smooth back of my phone with it for looks but it adds a nice bit of texture for a better grip.

The surface isn't rubbery or gritty. It has the grab feel kind of like a cross between rubber and a slightly sticky surface.
